Soo question, read that block times are 1 per minute, but its a merge mine coin, working off btc's 10 min per block? So how are you getting 1 min transactions?

also just to do the math it cost 200 coins to make a toon and someone who destructs loses there toon and the 1 they killed , but if we both are under 200 coins is it really worth killing to get another toon to loot the coins?

Also how long do the dropped coins last on the ground.. till someone gets them?

yes i was that one https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10623461
was a nasty bug, we should clearly state somewhere about that because it's a problem, as you say, that can go unnoticed if you don't match the size of the expeted size of file while into the zip archive, and the real size of the extracted file

...

Ohyea, thanks again MithrilMan! Cheesy

damn me... just because i replied in this forum, now I've back the urge to improve my client...!!!

It's a lost cause, programming always beat me, worse than a mermaid


well, if anyone have tried my client and feel the need to have something new, drop a line

You were right.  So HUC is clearly in-play.

Nice X and sunburst at the center of the game.   Wink

I can't believe I didn't see that sooner!

yep and fyi windows 64bit unzipper works just fine to unzip files over 4 gb, now older 32 bit unzippers wont Sad still client just sits there and cpu load is 0 with the app running.. I just cant win Sad

Win64 unzipper SEEMS like it works fine, but I'm telling you, it doesn't. You need to use 7zip (or something else).


Well may hat off to you sir, i did download 7zip and unziped it, loaded up and 3 weeks behind Smiley hopefully it will sync now Smiley

Thanks Smiley

No problem, I had the same exact issue a while ago, and domob, or snailbrain, or bgb or someone helped me figuring it out. You can kind of tell I think because when you use the built in windows unzipper, then the unzipped files come out to be smaller than the archive that you're extracting them from, but it's not something you would normally consider. I mean, why the fuck can't the windows built in unzipper handle large files? Wtf Balmer?  

Apparently they were slightly too drunk/sober when they implemented that feature:

P.S.
I'll update my client in order to update it according to  current game changes, as soon as I'll have time,anyway in time for the future planned fork, when the fork date will be set

I've just launched original betatest qt clients, and i see that actually isn't possible to easy spot where banks are, so I'll use some graphics to show easily where the bank is (maybe a treasure chest) and other useful info like banks life

From some time I'm keeping opinions about the game changes for myself and just support the community with new versions of the client, if people show interest in it

I've to admit that actually I'm not following much the coin, I'm not playing at all from a couple of month and not real improvements on the client because of the coin lack of interest, but i'm leaving my nodes(2) running and the realtime chat server operative (i've spent around 300 € last year and no one used it except me and other 2 or 3 users, i feel a patron Cheesy)

If things will change I'll be probably again more active on the development side of my client (and ecosystem around like phone alerts, etc..)

I just verified and HunterCoin is not merged mined.  It has no aux pow.

But the difficulty is very high and it is not profitable to mine right now so that does tell you something.

Cheers!

It's both SHA and SCRYPT.

This doesn't take away from the security either.

F2Pool doesn't point all their power at it, so I doubt it will ever be easy to mine.

Much better off mining something else and buying HUC.

The lead dev just told you like three posts up that it is merge mineable with both bitcoin and litecoin:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11613716

This Irish bitcoin site also mentions how f2pool merge mines huntercoin (and several others):
http://bitcoinsinireland.com/discus-fish-aka-f2pool-bitcoin-mining-pool-review/

Not sure why you're so certain that HUC isn't merge mined...but you're wrong.


Thanks for the correction - I'll get it straight from the horses mouth, cause this is confusing to me.


Cheers!

So you haven't read my lengthy reply to your questions?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11585967

It is not smart to mess with or invest into something you have no clues about.

Donated some coins to development fund yesterday, let's see if that can make a snail move and work faster.  Grin

I read your reply twice and I know more about the fish than most anyone and I know for a fact HUC is not being merge mined with Bitcoin.

Your post says nothing about merge mining with Bitcoin.  So what merge mining are referring to, Scrypts and Sha?  That's not the same thing as i0Coin or iXCoin being literally merge mined with Bitcoin.  This is the answer I'm trying to get.  Thx.



Well i know for a fact it is merged mined on f2pool aka Discuss Fish , I got a contract with  mintsy  and its been on f2pool for over a month , granted its less then .0025 with 100 gh/s F2pool added it and few other coins to celebrate its 2 year mining.

There is a chance HUC will be added to alcurEX exchange, see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11616607  Smiley

Anybody know why the difficulty in this coin is so high?  Who would mine this coin at such a big loss?

Thanks!

It's merge mined. F2pool aka Discus Fish mines (almost?) all the blocks I think.

Isn't HUC a sha coin?  HUC is not one of the merge mined coins with Bitcoin.  I'm certain of it.  So what are they merge mining it with?

Thanks - i'll make sure it goes to the right people. Smiley

There's a slight delay on the hardfork rollout while we deal with a technical request. Probably a couple of days.

p.s. in the early days there were around 30-50k hunters on the map if i remember correctly - we reduced this by adding movement fees, hunter cost and introducing disaster.

HUC has Dual Algos which are independent of each other.

Sha256 and Scrypt.

Both algos are merge mineable (with bitcoin and with litecoin for example).

you can set which algo in huntercoin.conf :

algo=scrypt
or
algo=sha256
